WOOD ASHES.

Dry, clean wood ashes are worth
more than % cents bushel to any
farmer who wants manure. You can
scarcely use them on any crop with
cut very sensible results. A hand
full thrown around the corn plants at
the first hoeing will greatly increase
their growth and give them highly
dark green color; scattered in the
hill before the potato is covered, or
about the hill just before hoeing, will
have similar results sown broadcast
on the moving fields at the rate of as
small an amount as FIVE bushels to
the acre will greatly increase 9the
growth and color Of the crop. Be-
sides this, their beneficial results
will continue for several years in
succession. Strewed over young cab
bage plants, squashes, melons, or any
OF the garden vegetables, such as to-
matoes, beets, onions, turnips, or car
rots, wood ashes not only tend to dis
turb the insects that intest the plants
but have decided influence on their
growth and quality. All the ashes
made on the farm should be collect
ed with care, kept dry and applied to
the crops. Nothing could be better
for the young orchard. Spreading
ashes broadcast over the surface
would be more useful than any other
kind Of manure. The roots will find
it if spread. 1t is Better to use a
moderate quantity annually than to
apply large amount at one time.

THE MINERAL DEVELOPMENT OF
THE SOUTH.
American Agriculturist.

One need not to be an optimist TO
believe that the outlook for the m-
ture of Southern agricultural is more
hopeful now than it has been for a
long time past, particularly in those
sections Of the States Of Alabama,
Tennessee and Georgia whose rich
mineral deposits are now attracting
the attention Of American and En-
glish capitalists. For years few
large cities of the South have grown
at the expense OF the smaller ones.
There are not enough consumers out
/ side OF few central points. The
economic balance is unsettled by an
Ioyerplus OF producers and when the
man Of new ideas brings a big har-
vest Of perishable products to glut-
ted market, he find, that successful
/ farming comprises not only the rails.
4 ing Of good crops, but the ability to
/ transfer them into ready money at
paying prices
Now, with the working of mines,
the establishment OF furnaces. the
quarry Of marble and stone and
slate, and the development OF many
new industries, there has come pre-
ciseiy what the farmer needs, viz !:
the influx Of a great army Of con-
sumers. The building Of the many
new lines eff competing railways. now
projected in the interest Of these
new enterprises, will give him cheap
er freight rates to the large center of
population, and thus render him
practically Independent Of home
markets. The ultimate outcome of
the mineral development of the new
South can bring nothing but good to
It's agriculture and its people.

English Capitalists Secure the wealthiest
Mine in America.
CITY OF MEXICO, April 29.-An En-
glish syndicate is about to purchase
the mulattos mines, their offer of
100000 has been accepted.
The disputed title has blocked pro-
ceedings. Senator Hearst, of
California, is said to have
offered 100000 for them two
years ago and wasrefused. The prop
erty is worked by the Aguayas broth
ers, who were humble miners in the
SOS, when the French intervention
stopped mining. These men waited
until the work had stopped long
enough to render the title void, then
they denounced it. They have been
working it on the old plan since and
have been making fortune out of it.
Inspectors say if properly worked it
can yield 100000 annually. There
is now Is, 100000 tons of ore in sight,
assaying from SIG to $25 per ton.

The Empress of Russia has quite as

one eats heartily and does not take it
out in strong physical exertion, the
ills to which flesh is heir break out
and have it all their own way. Royal
flesh is within the common law, just

when they rise from the misery of
their paternal homes to good situa-
tions, think they can never eat enough
meat, and SO get knocked over. A

RUSSIA'S FINANCES.

The Government Seeking to Bolster Up

ST. PETERSBURG, April 27.-The
German Herold says the Cars gov
eminent, desiring to raise the value
of the Russial paper currency, pro-
poses to have the Russian custom
houses accept part OF the payments
made for duties in credit notes instead
of gold at a price which the govern
ment shall fix, the government to pur-
chase all of it's outstanding credit
notes to be brought in the foreign
bourses to prohibit wholesale exporta-
ton of these notes, and to allow
travellers to take only small sums in
the notes out of Russia. To facilitate
the success of the scheme the Herold
says Russia will open in all the prin-
cipal European cities fiscal offices in
which travellers may exchange their
notes at the Russian custom house
rate

JUDGES ARE PREJUDICED.

Chicago BoodIers Making Desperate Eff
fort for a Change of Venue.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, April 27.-When Judge
Tuley's court opened this morning,
attorney Forrest presented a motion
for change of venue on behalf of the
parties indicted in the fat county jobs.
On behalf of E. r. Mcdonald he pre-
sented an affidavit alleging prejudice
on the part of Judges Tuley and
Garry. For McGarigle he filed an affi-
davit making similar allegations re-
specting judges Tuley and Halves. It
was evidently the intention to include
the same judges in each affidavit, as
the two are required to renderjustice in
both cases. 1t is believed that the other
indicted county officials will, by pur-
suing the same tactics, be thus ena-
bled to dispose of the entire bench,
thus causing a curious complication.
This at least was the view of the mat
ter taken by attorneys this morning.

The Successful Ones.
From the New York Graphic.


The most successful newspaper
writer's are gentlemen. Bad fellows
sometimes creep in, but you will find
them also preaching the gospel, heal,
ing the halt, pleading for justice, sell
ing tape and operating banks. There
are drunkards among the reporters,
but the tipplers are never called to the
front. Good newspaper men do not
find time to be convivial. Their du-
ties require their constant attention,
and their heads must be clear at all
times. To allow their heads to become
muddled by drink would be their de-
struction. A reporter must be gen.
tleman if ne hopes to succeed. He
must also be modest, charitable,
honorable and truthful and expert
enced in the ways of the world. He
must go about his business in quiet
manner and not like q roaring
lion seeking whom he may
devour. Beware also OF the reporter
who makes a great display OF note
book and pencils sharpened at both
ends. He is "duffer" in the pro-
fession. AS to the "dead beat" he
has no place within, and we do not
see him as frequently as formerly.
This IS right; for it is more of q crime
for newspaper man to be dead
beat than it is for doctor, a clerk,
or a stone mason, because he possess
es g. certain but silent process OF in
tim1dation not known to any other
class. Experienced men with hardy
constitutions and tough skins dislike
to gain the i'll will OF any journalistic
cat, if they can avoid it. Instead of
doing SO the party with the tenacious
cuticle keeps his peace. and thereby
places premium on future depreda-
tions and villifcations. The honest
newspaper man will not use his giants
power like a giant; and he will hasten
to correct any mistake Or mis-state-
ment that he has made.

sion to lear penalties. Very respectfully

She told of female patient who was
forced into bath tub and mopped
off with kitchen mop. Then the at
tendant threw some soft soap in her
eyes and laughed at her pain and
fright. Charles Brandt, of Welland,

The BaId-Knobbers Selling Their All to
Retain Defending Attorneys.
OZARK, Mo-, April 27.-The grand
jury has returned eight bills in which
forty-four knobbers were charged with
assaults and unlawful meetings. Some
of the parties are charged with five
different offenses, and the total will
reach st least eighty. Only three OF
the parties have as yet been arrested.
John Hiles is indicted IN three cases
for attending bald-knob meetings, and
his brother in one case. M. Il. Humble
is indicted in two cases, one for ad-
ministering the lash. Bail is fixed at
$3.50 for each charge. All the indict-
ments are for whipping, intimidation,
and pouring out Chadwick whisky. The
grand Jury has another lot OF lndlct-
ments to be reported on adjournment
which, it Is expected, will take place
to-day. The prosecuting attorney
says there will be seventy-fve bald
knobbers indicted on about 200
charges. Some very important wit
nesses and several influential citizens
supposed to be under the ban have
suddenly left the country. This Is g.
sad community of old men, reverends,
deacons, doctors and the like, who
are selling their LIES accumulations
to raise sum to retain lawyers to de-
fend their misguided sons. The law
yers' harvest will be rich, but it will
nearly bankrupt the community.
